ReCall Traning

HI there and thanks for the post

This is a quick one to answer as you are doing everything right. All you have to do is use the same method you have been doing with the recall but in a more controlled setting

Do the same thing but make do it in your back yard with another dog. Get the dog to sit a few metres away from your dog. And follow the same principle starting with a short lead and building up the right behaviour.
As he gets better and better give him more and more lead.

After he gets well behaved with another dog and so on. Once he is really well behaved give a try with a couple of dogs.

For a start it will be easier to keep the other dogs on a short lead but as the training goes on have them more and more off lead.

Keep up the great work and let me know how things go

Hi
I had this problem with my dane. I used a 30 ft training lead left attached to harness then if he didnt come back pull him in telling him to come until he knew what I wanted, every now a then I would step on the lead so that he had to "stop", at the same time telling him to stop. If he went off at a great rate of knots I would call him walk in the opposite direction and keep shouting "Zak this way" in a happy voice then he would eventually follow. Lots of praise and a treat when he did as he was told. Now I only call him in to have his lead on to go home, but use "this way" to let him now which direction he needs to come, (this way hes always coming towards me and hes obeying a command without really knowing it) when he gets near use your normal command to call him to you. Tokk about 6 weeks but now hes a dream
Hope this helps
